So in an odd turn of events I've received 100 dollars via an electronic transfer I verified to be legit, the "company" I received the funds from was called "Sample Gallery Inc." Which is very likely to be a new front for scams and such. I'm still waiting to redeem my 100$ in store credit which I can safely assume I'll never get as he has no store and refused to meet in person. He basically sent me the 100$ and I could either sit there and not take it or settle for it. No surprise he didn't want to meet in person even though he said he would last week. Glad I could at least get that much back but it might be bitter sweet as that money may go towards my gun being repaired.

how much money does he still owe you?
